Boys will be Boys



Cute pilgrim hat Carter made @ preschool

So lately Jaxon and Carter have been playing together really well, although the majority of their time spent together consists of wrestling, bantering, or hiding under blankets together. I'm glad they are becoming good buds. On Monday I was getting myself ready in my bathroom and the boys were playing in my bathroom. Carter did something he wasn't supposed to and so I said, "Carter, stop or you will go to time out." Jaxon chimes in right after, "One, two, go to time out!" I had to laugh. I was trying to be serious, but couldn't. Jaxon is a hoot. He honestly is so independent and moves chairs around in the kitchen to get where he needs to go. It is such a switch from Carter who is the complete opposite and wants me to do everything for him. Here are a few fun random pictures of the boys.

I've been Bugged!!!


Matt graciously bought me a Bodybugg for my birthday! Recently I have constantly been complaining about how I want (and need) to lose weight so I think Matt did it mainly to shut me up, but on the other hand because he loves me. After finding out how much they cost, I was very tempted to send it back trying to talk myself into the fact that I don't really need it. Well, I probably don't really need it, but I have slowly fallen in love with it! If you don't know what a Body Bugg is, they wear them on Biggest Loser and they keep track of calories burned per day. This enables you to create a "calorie deficit" so that you can lose weight. One of their slogan's is "We take the guesswork out of losing weight." They really do and so far for the past 4 days I've been able to create that "deficit" so I'm on my way to my January 27 goal date! I'll keep you updated on how it goes!
